I have just listened to about 6-8 versions of this Holst on KZitem and this is by far the best one. It has class: all of the lines of music can be heard, the tempos are not rushed but happen naturally throughout and the crescendos and diminuendos are executed with musical skill. This is something that most groups that perform this miss. Music is to be played with style and respect for the fundamentals of making music. Thank you Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra!

You know, when an ensemble is acting as a singular organism it can cause some folks to do weird things physically that they might not do otherwise. The players in this group are all obviously fundamentally excellent. But there is musical passage beyond the page and the stage. And it's fun to see that growth of interpretation like this. Flubs happen. But when singular expression takes over it's an amazing feeling from both the inside and out. Well done.

Tatsuya Shimono is an outstanding conductor. His conducting style is distinct although often subtle. The movements of his baton through the Chaconne's flowing almost dirge-like center passage are nuances allowing symphony players freedom to interpret the music collectively. Notice that Shimono's arms are relatively short compared to other conductors, a feature that may create the illusion of shallow conducting movements. However, his use of a side-to-side sway through thematic passages full of counterpoint lines is fully symbolic of his ability to bring the richness of the music to a fulfillment. Also, remember that each musical ensemble responds most favorably to the resident conductor who has spent hours with the ensemble in rehearsals. It's somewhat a symbiotic relationship unique to that ensemble and its conductor.
@mockingbirdanalog
10 жыл бұрын
Anyone complaining about Shimono should watch Mravinsky conduct. He was minimalism in the extreme. A good conductor is there to shepherd his players. All the interpretation, during a concert, is by the musicians, not the baton, and is rehearsed. I can't stand flamboyance. It does more to distract.

rareblues78daddy I can send you three other recordings where the players don't move at the same time. These players are much more precise than the Eastman, Cleveland Winds or Dallas Wind Symphony recordings. The only problem with the playing is some pitch problems in the low brass. The brass section in general sounds just okay. I played this in High school and college and it's hard to play, with very angular jumps in very difficult parts of the brass range. It's not sloppy in a traditional sense. If you want to fault the playing, then do so. The conductor cannot play the instruments. He only makes them move at the same time.

What a MASTERFUL performance! Tatsuya Shimono has truly brought honor to Holst's legacy! The interpretation is so nuanced. Too often pieces have such varying character from one section to the next, and yet the conductor/ensemble seem to treat each with the same attitude. Contrary to that paradigm though, this performance treats each section with such nuance and awareness for each's purpose within the broader context of the movement. The color range is stunning! This performance truly takes you on a journey through the suite, from start to finish. I am so grateful to have heard this performance.
